Rayan Ahmed extends hot streak with solid victory at Tommy Fleetwood Pathway Series

Dubai’s emerging golf sensation, Rayan Ahmed, has solidified his status as a rising star with a commanding victory at the 2025 Tommy Fleetwood International Pathway Series. Held at the prestigious Jumeirah Golf Estates, the event attracted a competitive field of 72 players from nine countries, representing 13 UAE clubs. Ahmed, an 18-year-old UAE National Team member, showcased his exceptional talent with consistent rounds of 69, 67, and 66, finishing with a 54-hole total of 211 and securing a four-shot victory over Adam Campbell of the Montgomerie Golf Club. This triumph marks Ahmed’s second consecutive win, following his recent success at the Faldo Golf Tour. The young golfer’s performance included 14 birdies, an eagle, and only two bogeys over three days on the challenging Earth Course. In the Girls’ Division, Imogen Hall of The Els Club, Dubai, emerged victorious after a thrilling playoff against Alisa Molokanova of the Russian Golf Association. The tournament, supported by DP World and the American Junior Golf Association, is the first of a three-part UAE series designed to provide young golfers with opportunities to earn World Amateur Golf Ranking points. Ahmed expressed his delight with the win, noting it as his lowest 54-hole score and a significant confidence boost ahead of the upcoming Asian-Pacific Amateur Championship. Tommy Fleetwood, the series’ namesake and a six-time DP World Tour winner, emphasized the event’s mission to nurture young talent and open doors for aspiring golfers on the global stage. The next two Pathway Series events are scheduled for November 2025 in Ras Al Khaimah and February 2026 in Abu Dhabi.
